Game Universe (Greenfield & Brookfield) is now starting to buy/trade for used games… They need to have all their parts (a missing standard die isn’t an issue) and they need to be out of print (can’t buy them new in the store). Stop on in with your games and we’ll give you a price (more for store credit).

GAME UNIVERSE EVENTS
Sunday, January 3rd, 2010NEW BOARD GAME DAY:
We took a survey of our customers at the Brookfield store and most of them are willing to attend a Sunday 1pm board game event. So we’ll be start this event Sunday January 10th at the Brookfiled location. It will be weekly though you need not attend weekly. Hopefully we’ll see you once a month or so though. We have over 50 open games at the store and we’re always happy to teach you how to play a new one! Participants will be offered a special price on the game played that day!
SPECIAL EVENT: Warhammer Fantasy Role-Play Demo
The new Fantasy Role Playing set for Warhammer looks and plays very well, but it’s $100 so you may be holding off. So we’re going to be running one or two free events to help teach the system and give you a chance to check it out. Our first event is: January 16th, 1pm at the Brookfield store. Make it there on time please.
